Travelers in the Faroe Islands can immerse themselves in the charm of remote villages, enjoying home-grown hospitality and unique local experiences. From intimate house concerts to meals in family-run restaurants, the islands offer a compelling case for slow travel. 🏞️🏡

The sod-roofed houses and red-steepled church of Mikladalur, a rural hamlet in the Faroe Islands, peek past coastal hills toward the windswept North Atlantic. It’s a landscape of startling beauty.

It’s easy to find family fun in Baja California Sur. 🏖️☀️

“Los Cabos’ resorts really cater to children with exceptional kids’ clubs and programming,” says Virtuoso travel advisor Leah Kirgis. “The Sea of Cortés – nicknamed the ‘World’s Aquarium’ by Jacques Cousteau – is such a great place for snorkeling and whale-watching. It’s one of my favorites.”

Before it became one of the world’s best under-the-radar wine regions, British Columbia’s Okanagan Valley was known for its “peaches and beaches”: ripe orchard fruits, sunny weather, and warm lakes that still draw crowds of holiday seekers each summer.

Then, in 1994, an Okanagan chardonnay (from Mission Hill, for those curious) was named the best in the world. Now travelers are as likely to visit the area for its electric rieslings and perfumed pinots as they are for its easygoing lifestyle and spectacular scenery. 🍑🍷☀️
